WHEREAS, the Fund desires to appoint MSDW TRUST as its transfer agent,

desires to accept such appointment;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained,
the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE 1 TERMS OF APPOINTMENT; DUTIES OF MSDW TRUST
1.1 Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the
Fund hereby employs and appoints MSDW TRUST to act as, and MSDW TRUST agrees to
act as, the transfer agent for each series and class of shares of the Fund,
whether now or hereafter authorized or issued ("Shares"), dividend disbursing
agent and shareholder servicing agent in connection with any accumulation,
open-account or similar plans provided to the holders of such Shares
("Shareholders") and set out in the currently effective prospectus and
statement of additional information ("prospectus") of the Fund, including
without limitation any periodic investment plan or periodic withdrawal program.
1.2 MSDW TRUST agrees that it will perform the following services:
(a) In accordance with procedures established from time to time by
agreement between the Fund and MSDW TRUST, MSDW TRUST shall:
(i) Receive for acceptance, orders for the purchase of Shares,
and promptly deliver payment and appropriate documentation therefor to
the custodian of the assets of the Fund (the "Custodian");
(ii) Pursuant to purchase orders, issue the appropriate number of
Shares and issue certificates therefor or hold such Shares in book
form in the appropriate Shareholder account;
(iii) Receive for acceptance redemption requests and redemption
directions and deliver the appropriate documentation therefor to the
Custodian;
(iv) At the appropriate time as and when it receives monies paid
to it by the Custodian with respect to any redemption, pay over or
cause to be paid over in the appropriate manner such monies as
instructed by the redeeming Shareholders;
(v) Effect transfers of Shares by the registered owners thereof
upon receipt of appropriate instructions;
(vi) Prepare and transmit payments for dividends and
distributions declared by the Fund;
(vii) Calculate any sales charges payable by a Shareholder on
purchases and/or redemptions of Shares of the Fund as such charges may
be reflected in the prospectus;
(viii) Maintain records of account for and advise the Fund and
its Shareholders as to the foregoing; and
(ix) Record the issuance of Shares of the Fund and maintain
pursuant to Rule 17Ad-10(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
("1934 Act") a record of the total number of Shares of the Fund which
are authorized, based upon data provided to it by the Fund, and issued
and outstanding. MSDW TRUST shall also provide to the Fund on a
regular basis the total number of Shares that are authorized, issued
and outstanding and shall notify the Fund in case any proposed issue
of Shares by the Fund would result in an overissue. In case any issue
of Shares
1
would result in an overissue, MSDW TRUST shall refuse to issue such
Shares and shall not countersign and issue any certificates requested
for such Shares. When recording the issuance of Shares, MSDW TRUST
shall have no obligation to take cognizance of any Blue Sky laws
relating to the issue of sale of such Shares, which functions shall be
the sole responsibility of the Fund.
(b) In addition to and not in lieu of the services set forth in the
above paragraph (a), MSDW TRUST shall:
(i) perform all of the customary services of a transfer agent,
dividend disbursing agent and, as relevant, shareholder servicing

but not limited to, maintaining all Shareholder accounts, preparing
Shareholder meeting lists, mailing proxies, receiving and tabulating
proxies, mailing shareholder reports and prospectuses to current
Shareholders, withholding taxes on U.S. resident and non-resident
alien accounts, preparing and filing appropriate forms required with
respect to dividends and distributions by federal tax authorities for
all Shareholders, preparing and mailing confirmation forms and
statements of account to Shareholders for all purchases and
redemptions of Shares and other confirmable transactions in
Shareholder accounts, preparing and mailing activity statements for
Shareholders and providing Shareholder account information;
(ii) open any and all bank accounts which may be necessary or
appropriate in order to provide the foregoing services; and
(iii) provide a system that will enable the Fund to monitor the
total number of Shares sold in each State or other jurisdiction.
(c) In addition, the Fund shall:
(i) identify to MSDW TRUST in writing those transactions and
assets to be treated as exempt from Blue Sky reporting for each State;
and
(ii) verify the inclusion on the system prior to activation of
each State in which Fund shares may be sold and thereafter monitor the
daily purchases and sales for shareholders in each State. The
responsibility of MSDW TRUST for the Fund's status under the
securities laws of any State or other jurisdiction is limited to the
inclusion on the system of each State as to which the Fund has
informed MSDW TRUST that shares may be sold in compliance with state
securities laws and the reporting of purchases and sales in each such
State to the Fund as provided above and as agreed from time to time by
the Fund and MSDW TRUST.
(d) MSDW TRUST shall provide such additional services and functions
not specifically described herein as may be mutually agreed between MSDW
